PDPW Podcasts

Our PDPW Podcast guest speaker this week is Hank Wagner, a multi-generational dairy farmer and leadership training coach. This week, Hank shares six points to consider on how we can find value in lifting and encouraging those in our lives. 

This week's PDPW Podcast focuses on the voice in your head. That little voice is tremendously important when it comes to your outcome in life. Michael Hoffman reminds us that how we approach life and our attitude impacts how we think and create that voice in our head. 

Music plays an important part in our lives. It can rev us up or settle us down and be a great reminder of where we have been and a motivator for where we are going. As we hear from Shelly O'Leary, there is something about the power of music that shapes the playlist of our lives. 

As we enter a new week, let's take a moment to think about the significant event that shook our lives on September 11th, 2001. Servant leadership trainer Tom Thibodeau reflects on a day we should never forget. 

Names have been an integral part of who we are since the beginning of time. History has proven that names are essential to our identity, so why are they so hard to remember? This week, PDPW’s Shelly O’Leary shares tips on remembering the names of those we meet. 

The generation we are born into shapes how we view the world and others around us. In this week's PDPW Podcast, learn how we can establish positive relationships with those of all generations.

A positive attitude is a powerful force that can spread like wildfire. Not only can positivity make another person's day, but it can make us all feel good. This week, Hank Wagner encourages us to pay closer attention to our thoughts and words, as a few small actions can change someone's day.

It's summertime and the living is easy. Take some time to think back on your favorite summer memory as servant leadership trainer Tom Thibodeau reflects on the shared experience and joy we have during summer.  

The most effective leaders are the ones that serve. "Good work, hard work, noble work." You may have heard those words before from our friend and servant leadership trainer Tom Thibodeau. Tom has been sharing about servant leadership for years, but today is the most important time to step up and serve!

It seems there are more "Help Wanted" signs now than ever before. As we hear from Tom Thibodeau, work is a definition of who you are. When we recognize that work is an act of service, we realize it is part of our identity and an expression of our true selves.  

You may have heard the phrase, you’re a product of your own environment. We become like the people we spend most of our time with. That’s why we are spending time with our long-time friend in the PDPW family, Shelly O’Leary, outreach specialist at Professional Dairy Producers. Listen as Shelly shares why it’s important to be aware of the company we keep. 

Remember a time in your life when somebody or something gave you hope? Did it help you endure or push you further? Hope can be the difference between hanging on and giving up. In this week's podcast, Hank Wagner points out how hope is needed in our world today and why we should all consider being "dealers of hope."

The power of setting goals is essential, particularly when it comes to relationships. In this week's PDPW Podcast, Hank Wagner shares how we can improve our relationships by improving our vision.

Every cloud has a silver lining. Two wrongs don’t make a right. Actions speak louder than words. These and many other common phrases have been around for thousands of years helping us navigate life. Servant leadership trainer Tom Thibodeau shares why keeping these short wisdom-filled phrases, or proverbs, in our hearts and minds is essential in today's world.

Rituals arise from the various ages and stages of life, and this week, Tom Thibodeau shares the importance of rituals. Listen as he explains how traditions and celebrations help transform the ordinary into the holy.

This week on the PDPW Podcast, Hank Wagner joins us for a look at the expectations we set in our lives.
